Eliezer just used 9/11 as an example. His post isn't supposed to say all there is to say about 9/11. It's supposed to make a point about seeing the humanness in people who do bad deeds.

No one should understand US' actions towards Iraq.

Not understanding actions doesn't help.

All of us should pray that Iran isn't next.

Praying doesn't help either. It's rather important to understand why the world is the way it is. If a significant amount of people in a democracy understand the way the world works you get positive political change.
